I imagine that if it was going to be fixed it would have been done around 10 years ago 🙂

same as 692

I re-join CPSA every year, I would think a lot do on this site so we can shoot REG shoots.

Not much apart from named storms, don't mind rain, love snow

When I have to use fibre wads in my Beretta 692 18.6mm Optima barrels I always use Lyalvale English Sporters (in 8 shot) which do the job for me. Lyalvale say "The English Sporter is a highly consistent shot, delivering exception value for money." and why would they lie 😉

Could be interesting doing a 100 bird sporting or a few rounds of skeet

We got there about 11am, everyone wanted to start on stands 1 & 2 which were off to the right, these were very busy but once people spread out things were a lot better. Report pair of long crossers - I broke the first one and thought I had it in the bag, then missed the remaining five. getting...

It might have taken your brain 10 years to cotton on to the fact that pulling the trigger = painful recoil which is to be avoided by not cooperating. It took mine more like 50 years to start playing tricks. If it takes another 50 years to learn how to mess up trigger release I wouldn't be too...

I did the Owls Lodge EASTER SHOOT & HAMPSHIRE SPORTING CHAMPIONSHIPS on Saturday. I found it interesting to say the least, all targets were hittable but, for me, not all of the time by any means 😵‍💫. I ended up around 10 points down on my average and thought I was having a bad day but that was...

While the trigger is still pressed you activate the top lever to open the gun - then you can let go of the trigger

https://www.hallowellco.com/proof_date_codes.htm The M next to the 11 on the RH barrel in the photo could indicate 1921 if proofed in Birmingham 1961 if proofed in London (the proof markings look to me as if they are from Birmingham - so 1921?)

You can find what they mean on the web as I did - do not take my word for any of these:- crown over NP mark tell you that the gun has passed nitro proof crown over BV mark is the View mark - incomplete guns viewed to check no faults prior to further work crown over BP mark is the definitive...

Two have recently closed in my area (Camberley Gun Club and Three counties) which is a real shame because they have been running for decades. Both closed, I think, because the landowners put a stop to it.

Thanks Tech, I think I found where you meant and turned ads off, so far no ads (y)

Sounds as if you are having a great time, keep it up. In my early days of shooting I would never be able to shoot well after a particularly good day's shooting, it was as if my brain was saying to me that I've got it cracked and now I don't have to try so hard - with predictable results. It's...

I can assure you that I have shown no interest in codex devices

I'm still getting dodgy ads, does anyone else get these? I'm a bloke in my 70's, what would I want with a pink tee shirt?

Agreed, if you are a new shooter you need to be sure that you are mounting the gun correctly before making decisions about stock length. Some professional advice should help.

Probably just a one off, the next Westfields shoot might be interesting to see what changes they make

Westfields today. Discovered that the A419 Swindon to Cirencester was closed so travelled through just about every little Cotswold village doing the scenic route. Parking was a bit hairy as the far field had an inch layer of liquid clay in places making it like an ice rink. (4x4 a distinct...
